Just a quick question regarding the virtualbox failures, what I'd like to know: why did the tests pass with the old dkms package version? If you check the ADT test history for groovy for instance, the tests for non-amd64 arches only fail with the new dkms. I understand they might not be meant to work for non-x86, but I'm just curious why suddenly they are now failing.

With that packages suchs bcml-kernel-source and nvidia drivers are not being tested automatically by autopkgtest. [Test Case] Run autopkgtest in Focal for bcmwl-kernel-source (6.30.223.271+bdcom- 0ubuntu5) and the 5.8 kernel and even with this version of the driver failing to build with the 5.8 kernel, the test succeeds. The expected behavior, is that that dkms-autopkgtest should fail in this case. [Where problems could occur] The main issue that we can have here is selecting additional packages for the DKMS test that are not DKMS packages.
